England?

Why on Earth are they as impotent as 5 Bellies Dill when the time comes.

Glenn Hoddle and mystic healers is wot they need to actually win something.

To win anything.


Hoddle, mystic healers, and Italian or Irish coaches with International Tournament winning experience.




There's still like 15 months until it starts, right?

France v Zaireland should be good tomorrow with the latest homegrown talent of O'shea, O'dowda, O'bafemi and O'mobambudgja

Engo v Ukky at 11pm for the evening's comedy

Brilliant.

Hopefully they'll top the qualifying group undefeated, like a few years ago.


The punchline that follows, every single time, simply can't be beat.

[Reg Dingle]

Well... thats the two easiest games out of the way.

[harrybarracuda]

It's coming home, it's coming home etc.

[harrybarracuda]

Got to give it to Harry, great achievement.

The family of Jack Leslie, the first Black player to receive an England call-up, have been presented with a posthumous honorary cap by the Football Association.




The inside-left, who scored 137 goals in 400 appearances for Plymouth between 1921 and 1934, was called up to the national team in 1925, but denied an England appearance because of the colour of his skin, after selectors learnt about his heritage.

Leslie died in 1988 and was immortalised by a statue that was unveiled outside Argyle's Home Park stadium in October, with FA chair Debbie Hewitt later confirming Leslie last year had been posthumously awarded an England cap 97 years after he was called up.

Prior to England's Euro 2024 qualifier against Ukraine at Wembley on Sunday, Leslie's family were presented with said cap.

Did they even have to break a sweat?

The women did the storied history of scottish goalkeeping proud last night.

Two absolute pearlers in the Old Firm derby.

Let's just say they were smelly.

And a stereotypical Glasgow kiss to boot.

[Edmond]

That Celtic goal had pure RoI DNA.


Could easily have been Mick McCarthy hoofing it long up towards Niall Quinn, before it rebounds off the Faroe Island's keeper and defender and somehow presents itself to Quinny in front of an open goal.

Looks like he sniffed his hair.

Looks like he sniffed his hair.

I know, considering what the bead rattlers get up to, it's hardly "disgusting".

[cyrille]

Anyone know wtf he's on about?

Considering what Catholics get up to, sniffing another man's hair is hardly disgusting.


I think.





He's got a point.

FFS sybille, how obviously fucking disingenuous.

Try harder.

[harrybarracuda]

Well fucking hell. Well played you sweaties!

Super Scott McTominay was again the two-goal hero as Scotland stunned Spain with a sensational 2-0 Euro 2024 qualifying win at a delirious Hampden Park.

And Porro being spursy

Pedro Porro - Slipped for Scotland’s opener, then descended into a pantomime villain due to his theatrics. Hooked at the break. 3
